Building Bridges: Your Community and Labor Report
National Edition -27:06
**************************************
Bosses' Chutzpah in Fighting Union Organizing Legislation
with
Richard Trumpka, Secretary-Treasurer, AFL-CIO
and
John Schmitt, Senior Economist, Center for Economic Policy
Research (CEPR), and Author âDropping the Ax: Illegal Firings
During Union Election Campaigns"

For decades employers have waged war on union organizing by firing
workers, holding captive audience meetings to intimidate workers and
threatening moving jobs overseas. Pro-union workers were fired in more
than a quarter of union election campaigns. Now that the Employee Free
Choice Act, which would level the playing field for workers in organizing
drives, is set for a Congressional vote the business lobby is working
overtime to crush it.
